Jet2 have made no secret of the fact that BFS will see more routes. But for LBA, considering (i) where we are in the booking cycle for routes to the sun and (ii) the fact that the LBA schedule as it stands doesn't provide a full flying programme for 6 aircraft, the only thing that would make me get a couple of those remaining Ansett machines out of BOH, through their checks and up to LBA in time for the summer would be if a decent set of CDG and/or LGW slots appeared from somewhere

At this stage of the season, I'd be looking instead to use the spare capacity from the current fleet to top-up weekend services to the hotspots on the Med - another Saturday run to PMI looks like a must, while AGP and FAO seem to selling up nicely.

PS - didn't LBAir's "grapevine" predict some sort of announcement from Jet2 back in January which never materialised? Maybe another reason to treat the rumour of extra a/c at LBA with a pinch of salt
